LoveBites is a mad-capped song cycle about
loving; leaving and leaping into the joyful (or not so joyful) unknown with
original lyrics and music by James Millar and Peter Rutherford
the creators of the hit musical The Hatpin.
LoveBites is
a series of short stories told through song by one half of each couple in the
instant that love strikes, followed by the other half’s rendition of how it all ended up.
An absent minded young lady leaves
behind more than she intended from a one night stand; a pair of Eric Satie
fanatics discover each other in an elevator; a worry wart panics about the
romantic unknown as she dangles precariously from a rock face; a book group
with only two members develops into something much greater than an innocent
discussion about the latest Helen Garner novel and a florist...is sent flowers.
With all actors playing multiple
roles and performing in a wide range of song styles, Rutherford and Millar’s
latest work LoveBites is set to
amaze audiences.
With Octavia Barron-Martin (LaLa Land, The Hatpin), Tyler Burness (Broadway in Concert,
Australian Idol Top 50), Sarah
Croser (The Barber of Seville, Bat Boy) and James Millar (Company, Oklahoma).
